Default Re: So all of you Mopar guys!

Steve, the only reason that I zeroed in on the 2000-2005 cars is they're in the guide, there's still some around and a decent one can be bought for not-a-lot of money. I would like to see a base car done for the simple fact---------- they're simple. Turbos can be fussy. Now understand, I know next to nothing about these things but I do know that they race them on dirt ovals and SCCA stuff so they should be able to be done cheap.
All I'm looking for is for someone to take the time to do the same thing that I did with the Cavalier and what Yac is doing with the Escort. Oh AND do a "Class Build" thread on it.
No major ordeal, no #1 Qualifier, just a simple "anyone could do this for a "Dime" deal.

Next, I've got to try and get one of those FFFord neanderthals to rattle the Tech Depts. cage and get a FFFord FFFocus and a FFFord FFFiesta or two in the guide. Old Escorts are getting to be extinct.

Billy, Did you look at the cam deal? Looks like a license to steal, to me.
Of course, I don't know what the internal limitations are, nor do I care to find out.
I usually don't deal with foreign cars (Sorry, Don ;-) )

Billy
You can build this neon yourself. Sell the cavalier (tell them there is a couple gallons of Sunoco in the tank that will double it's value). If it don't sell take it into Newark (daylight hours only) and knock a couple windows out and leave the keys in it someone will take it.

This would be a great opportunity for you to have the Mopar experience. You could truly have a GREAT New Year!
